LUTHER E. PAINE, OF EDINBURG, INDIANA, ASSIGNOR l'IO TI-IE EDINBURG FOUNDRY ANI) MACHINE COMPANY, OF SAME PLACE.

WEATl-iEl-BOARD-SWING ATTACHMENT FOR CIRCULAR SAWS.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 448,162, dated March 10, 1891.

Serial No. 367,842. (No model.)

T0 all whom t may concern.'

Be it known that I, LUTHER E. PAINE, of Edinburg, county of Johnson, and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Wreather-Board-SawingAttachments for Circular Saws; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference bein had to the accompanying` drawings, in which like lett-ers refer to like parts.

My invention relates to the construction of devices for holding boards while being' sawed diagonally, and is intended to be attached to an ordinarycircularsaiving machine, and will be understood from thefolloWi'ng description.

InV the drawings, Figure l is an end View of my device attachedv to the machine. Fig. 2 is a side View, and Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail view, of the device detached.

In detail, l is the inachine-frame, 2 a driving-pulley, and 3 the sa\vthese being constructed and arranged in the ordinary Way.

4 is a gage-plate set upon the top of the table and connected in the usual manner.

5 is a thumb-screw passing through a slot 0, formed in a plate 7, which is set at an angle to the upright part of the gage-plate and is locked by means of the thumbsCreW.

8 is a bent arm bolted to the plate 7 and carrying a headed spindle il, on which is mounted a pressure-roller 10, preferably made of rubber, set to bear directly against the side of the inclined board ll, the foot of the spin dle 9 resting in an inclined socket l2,formed in the table of the machine. The head of the spindle 9 rests upon the top of the anglearm S, the spindle passing,` through and Working loosely in an opening` in such arm.

The device is clamped by means of the thumb-screw to the plate 4f, and the board l1 is passed in ,between the plate 7 and the roller board into two pieces on a diagonal line, as shown, making the usual tapering Weathern board or siding for houses. The heads of the bolts which unite the plate 7 to the arm S are countersunk, so as to prevent any resistance to the movement of the board.

My device is easily attached and can readily be applied to any ordinary circular sawing machine, and is inexpensive in construction and not easily disarranged.

That I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is the following:

l. In a sawing-machine, an attachment for sawing Weather-boarding, comprising a gageplate connected to the machine-table having an upright projection, an auxiliary plate detach-ably secured thereto by means such as a thum b-screw, a bent arm bolted to such plate carrying a revoluble spindle, a pressure-roll rigidly mounted thereon, and the foot of the spindle seated in an inclined socket formed in the table of the machine, substantially as shown. and described.

2. An attachment for circular sawing 1na chines, comprising' the plate 7, connected to the machine-frame, a bent arm 8, connected svs Y to such plate and carrying` a revoluble headed spindle 9, a pressure-roll l0, rigidly mounted on such spindle, a sawing-machine table having` an inclined socket in Which such spindle is seated, and a gage-plate connected to such table, with means, substantiallyas described, for securing the parts in position.

3. An attachment for circular sawing machines, comprising the plate 7, connected to the machine frame, an arm 8, connected thereto and carryinga revoluble spindle 9, an elastic pressure-roll l0, mounted on such spindle, a sawing-machine table havingl an inclined socket therein, and a gage-plate connected to such table, with means, substantially as described, for securing the parts in position.

In Witness whereof I have hereunto setmy hand this Sth day of October, 1890.

LUTHER E. PAINE.
